The effect of the elongation of the proximal aorta on the estimation of the aortic wall distensibility

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Georgios Rovas, Bram Trachet, Vasiliki Bikia, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou, Mauro Ferraro

The compliance of the proximal aortic wall is a major determinant of cardiac afterload. Aortic compliance is often estimated based on cross-sectional area changes over the pulse pressure, under the assumption of a negligible longitudinal stretch during the ...

Notch1 haploinsufficiency causes ascending aortic aneurysms in mice

Freddy Radtke

An ascending aortic aneurysm (AscAA) is a life-threatening disease whose molecular basis is poorly understood. Mutations in NOTCH1 have been linked to bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), which is associated with AscAA. Here, we describe a potentially novel role f ...

OVERCORRECTED GLENOID IMPLANTS TO AVOID RECURRENT SUBLUXATION AFTER TOTAL SHOULDER ARTHROPLASTY: A PATIENT-SPECIFIC FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS

Sandro Andrin Bergamin

Hypothesis: Total shoulder arthroplasty is an efficient treatment to osteoarthritis but has a relatively high failure rate. One of the main causes were found to be glenoid loosening associated with off-center loadings. An implant with an overcorrected desi ...

Computational comparison of aortic root stresses in presence of stentless and stented aortic valve bio-prostheses

Alfio Quarteroni, Christian Vergara, Elena Faggiano

We provide a computational comparison of the performance of stentless and stented aortic prostheses, in terms of aortic root displacements and internal stresses. To this aim, we consider three real patients; for each of them, we draw the two prostheses con ...

Osteogenesis imperfecta: from diagnosis and multidisciplinary treatment to future perspectives

Dominique Pioletti, Lee Ann Laurent-Applegate

Osteogenesis imperfecta is an inherited connective tissue disorder with wide phenotypic and molecular heterogen- eity. A common issue associated with the molecular ab- normality is a disturbance in bone matrix synthesis and homeostasis inducing bone fragil ...

Treatment with sulphated galactan inhibits macrophage chemotaxis and reduces intraplaque macrophage content in atherosclerotic mice

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Experimental data from animal models and clinical studies support connections between the haemostasis and inflammation in atherogenesis. These interfaces among inflammation and thrombogenesis have been suggested as targets for pharmacological intervention ...

Wall properties of the apolipoprotein E-deficient mouse aorta

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Aristotelis Agianniotis

Objectives: We quantified the dysfunction of the aortic wall, determined structural and elastic properties, and provided histological data of the thoracic aortas of apolipoprotein E (apoE)-deficient mice which are used as model of atherosclerosis. Methods: ...

Temporal lobe epilepsy and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS)

Olaf Blanke

We describe a 20-year-old woman suffering from right temporal epilepsy, behavioral disorder, and a complaint of paroxysmal palpitations accompanied by anxiety. Detailed cardiac evaluation revealed that the palpitations were due to episodes of marked sinus ...
